has taken care of a high degree of safety for its heaters, but this is only possible with proper installation of the equipment.

The operation of the boiler is based on the use of 2 energy carriers - water and electricity - for each of the systems the connection sequence and the use of auxiliary protective devices are determined. In this article we will tell you how to turn on the Ariston boiler in an apartment.

How to properly turn on an Ariston water heater: step-by-step video instructions

When the boiler is turned on only when necessary, some nuances of its operation are often forgotten.
With a standard heater connection scheme, you must follow the entire procedure so that the device works without interruptions and lasts a long time. The operating principle of any boiler is simple: cold water passes into the tank, heats up there, and hot water comes out. For the most part, heaters have the same components, which are:

internal tank. It is made of anti-corrosion steel, which prolongs the life of the water heater and protects internal elements from damage;
a heating element;
RCD (residual current device), which protects against voltage surges and overheating.

The system for using the heater is very simple and straightforward.

Only experienced specialists should install the device.
Before installing the tank, it is necessary to check the serviceability of the electrical wiring. Specialists must make sure that the voltage in the network corresponds to the permissible voltage for the tank specified in the instructions for use of the device. The use of adapters or extension cords is prohibited. Connecting additional electrical appliances to the same electrical line is not allowed. The outlet must be dry and away from sources of water. If the power cord becomes damaged over time, it can only be replaced by a specialist. So, the tank is already connected, how now to turn on the Ariston water heater? The instructions for use will help you connect the heater.

First you need to turn off the hot water supply in the apartment. Otherwise, the contents of the boiler will flow into the riser. Despite the presence of a check valve, turn off the water.

Open the tap and wait until the water has completely drained. When the liquid stops flowing, close the tap.

Cold and heated water enter the boiler and back through two pipes. On the tank they are indicated by blue and red marks, respectively. These mixers on both pipes need to be opened. First turn on cold water, then hot. If you forget to open the hot water tap, it will flow down the riser into the whole house.

When the air has left the device and the liquid flows in an even stream, the boiler can be connected to the power supply and the desired program can be selected. Do not block the cold water pipe; the supply to the boiler is automatically regulated.

After five minutes, check the water in the tap; its temperature should increase. If so, then you did everything right.

There are also compact water heaters. Installing such devices will not be difficult. They are installed in place of the old tap. After installation, the tank must be connected to a pipe through which cold water flows. Then turn off the hot water tap and connect the device to the outlet. Turn on the water and you're done. To install such heaters, it is still better to contact specialists.

Any heating tank must be connected to a separate outlet, which is located away from sources of moisture.

When you are finished using the boiler, it must be turned off. How to do this? Unplug the tank cord from the outlet. Wait until the water in the tank cools down. Turn off both taps, one of which supplies water to the tank, and the other releases hot water. After this, open the hot water riser.

If the boiler is used from time to time, then there is no need to drain the water from it. Water helps ensure that parts in the device are less susceptible to corrosion. Drain the water immediately before using it again. When you do this, rinse and take a clean one.

If a situation arises when the boiler needs to be emptied of liquid, this can be done using a check valve installed on the device.

Be careful! When the tank is empty, turning it on is strictly prohibited!

In order for the Ariston water heater to serve you for a long time, it needs care. It should be cleaned every six months to protect the heating element from damage. It is better to have any malfunction repaired by specialists. To notice this, pay attention to the following:

the water takes much longer to heat up;
a hissing sound is heard while the device is operating;
The heater started turning on and off more often.

With proper operation and timely care, the unit will last a long time, as it uses only original spare parts for its devices. The heating elements are made of high-quality copper; a special system protects the device from overheating and freezing. The models are distinguished by their flat shape and easy installation. Tanks are produced in volumes of 30, 50, 80 and 100 liters. The devices have a water purification system to remove bacteria. The displays are functional and easy to use.

Ariston water heater: operation, maintenance and repair

To ensure efficient and safe operation, you must know and follow the basic rules for operating the product.

It is prohibited to turn on the device until the storage tank is completely filled.
Mechanical or other damage to electrical cables is not allowed;
Before starting to operate the Ariston water heater, you should ensure that the grounding is in good working order;
If a problem is detected, the unit should be immediately disconnected from the power supply, drain the water and contact a service center.

Even with proper operation, timely maintenance of the system is necessary to maintain functionality. First of all, this is due to the low quality of the supplied water. Despite the presence of filters, a large number of chemical compounds and mechanical impurities enter the internal tank, contributing to the formation of scale and other contaminants. Regular cleaning of the heating element and the internal surface of the storage tank will significantly increase the service life of the boiler. Scheduled maintenance includes:

Preliminary drainage of water from the storage tank;

Disconnecting plumbing fixtures;

Dismantling the water heater housing;

Cleaning the heating element and the inner surface of the tank without the use of particularly aggressive detergents, if possible avoiding mechanical and abrasive effects;

Assessing the condition of the magnesium anode and, if necessary, replacing it.

Timely implementation of these recommendations will ensure long-term and efficient operation of the Ariston autonomous heating system.

The conservation and subsequent activation of the boiler deserves special consideration.

How to turn on a Thermex water heater: model features

Thermex water heater is installed by professionals, but you will have to do it yourself to turn it on. But you need to know exactly how to perform this action correctly so that the device does not fail. The instantaneous boiler is turned on according to the usual scheme: the air is released, the hot water is turned off, the necessary settings are set, and the system is turned on. The main difference between a flow-through boiler and a time-storage water heating boiler. The first option takes only 5-15 seconds, and the second – 2.5-3 hours.

Stages of turning on the water heater:

The shut-off valves on the hot drain are closed.
Air is deflated. First the hot water tap opens, and then the cold one. The air is determined by a ragged stream when the water flows intermittently, and the tap itself can “snort.”
When the water begins to flow calmly, all taps are closed. The boiler is connected to the network.
Before connecting, you need to set the required temperature.

The operation of the boiler is checked using the panel. Indicators and temperature are checked. If everything is in order, then after 15-20 minutes the temperature will begin to rise.

To connect the boiler, a separate socket with grounding is used. Read about installing sockets in the article: https://homeli.ru/remont-i-otdelka/ustanovka-rozetki-v-gipsokarton

But there are times when the connection is quite problematic and the water heater does not turn on. In this case, electricity networks, sockets and other elements are first checked. Also, the cause may be a broken cable, which is checked using a tester.

Useful tips

Before calling a technician at the first suspicion of a malfunction, first check whether the reason for the failure is the lack of light or water.
If hot water does not flow from the taps, first check that the water and electrical connections meet the requirements outlined in the relevant sections of this manual. Check the connections between the terminals and the corresponding thermostat terminals. If everything is in order, it means that the two-pole protective device may have tripped (see the previous section), or the circuit breaker has been turned off, or the heating element has burned out.
Before performing any maintenance, repair or cleaning, disconnect the heater from the electrical and water supply.
If the indicator light does not turn on and the device heats the water, check that the light bulb is working properly.
If the safety valve is equipped with a handle for draining water from the water heater, it is recommended to flush the safety valve at least once a month to avoid clogging. To do this, you need to lift the handle several times.
It is not recommended to remove scale from the inner surface of the tank, because... The scale layer is an additional protection of the tank from corrosion.
When connecting to a water supply system, direct contact of two different metals should be avoided (for example, when using copper pipes). For this purpose, use dielectric connection adapters
, which can be purchased from an authorized service center.

How to use the Ariston water heater

There is no particular difference in connecting storage systems. The Ariston boiler is similar to connecting other devices. Let's take a closer look at each successive stage.

Connection sequence for the Ariston water heater:

It is necessary to close the hot water supply with shut-off valves.
You need to open the tap at the installation site of the unit and drain the water from it. After this, you need to close the tap.
Air is escaping from the water heater. To do this, first open the inlet tap (marked in blue), then open the hot water tap (marked in red). After deflating, when the stream becomes smooth, it is necessary to close the hot water supply tap.
The cold water tap does not close, as its supply is regulated automatically.
The boiler is connected to the power supply and the temperature parameters are adjusted.

After finishing work, it is necessary to check the functionality of the unit. When the panel is turned on, the temperature begins to increase. If this does not happen, then the water heater was connected incorrectly or the boiler was damaged.

Useful tips on how to use the boiler

When the boiler was turned on for the first time, it must be given time to warm up the water to the maximum temperature. Open the tap on the mixer and check for leaks. If they are missing, then you can safely use the water heater.

The instructions for using the boiler regulate the correct operation of the device. It is important to follow all its instructions.

After turning on the device, you need to set the required temperature. Typically, these parameters are determined by three modes: 35, 55 and 75 degrees. In some models you can set the temperature to 10 degrees. This mode is called “anti-freeze”.

Let's look at the basic rules of how to use an Ariston water heater. Each device comes with a user manual, but often everything is written in incomprehensible technical terms.

Recommendations on how to use your boiler economically

A boiler is quite an expensive device. Every owner learns about this when it comes time to pay for electricity. That is why there are a number of recommendations for saving electricity.

Rules for budget use of a boiler:

There is no need to turn off the water heater if hot water is constantly needed. When the boiler maintains a constant temperature, it takes less energy than heating it every time from the beginning.
If hot water is needed less often than a couple of times a day, then it is better to turn off the boiler.
Some models have an economy mode.

But the main thing is to save water itself. You don't want it to flow unnecessarily. Heating is quite fast, and closing the tap for a few minutes during procedures will save money.

The best models of Ariston storage water heater

The Ariston water heater is represented by a fairly wide range of plumbing fixtures and corresponding standard model lines.
The products of this brand have the following categories:

traditional boilers;
floor boilers;
condensing boilers;
floor boilers;
boilers with indirect heating;
gas instantaneous water heaters;
water heaters equipped with heat pumps;
gas storage water heaters;
electric water heaters with storage function.

Each device is equipped with heating elements, control devices and additional accessories.

Why are Ariston water heaters created?

Household water heating appliances that run on electricity are most often used during hot water outages.
As a rule, compact models are purchased. When professionally installed, the water heater provides warm water for daily household needs: washing, cleaning or showering. In private sectors, larger volume gas and electric heaters with storage are used with all communications. In this case, household appliances from the famous Italian company are used all year round.

How to turn on an Ariston water heater

Under no circumstances should you turn on an empty heater!

For most household appliances, the following instructions are typical when turned on for the first time:

Open the cold water supply valve (not to be confused with the safety valve);
Open the hot water tap or lever from the mixer connected to the water heater;
Wait a certain amount of time to collect water;
When the heater's boiler is full, water should flow from the faucet;
Provide proper power to the device;
At first starts, the temperature should be set to the middle position; over time, the liquid temperature level is adjusted to save and quickly heat up;
Ariston electronic models are adjusted by buttons for the required heating level;

These steps must be performed by the installation wizard.

Due to inexperience, they forget to open the valve responsible for supplying hot water from the boiler. If it is not fixed in the desired position, the heated water from the device will flow into the riser of the house.

How to turn off the boiler and turn on hot water

The principle here is the same as when turning on the boiler, only all steps must be done in reverse order:

The water heater is unplugged.
The time is maintained until the entire volume of liquid in the tank cools completely.
Two taps are turned off - the cold water supply and the hot water outlet.
The last thing is to open the hot water supply tap to the apartment on the riser.

The entire operation takes no more than five minutes.

There is no point in draining the water while the boiler is not in use. In water, its parts are less susceptible to corrosion. It is better to drain the water before putting the device back into operation, rinse it and fill it with clean water.

If you need to drain the water, this can be done using a check valve installed on the water heater.

So, connecting and disconnecting the boiler is quite simple, you just need to understand why certain actions are being performed. The connection and disconnection diagrams for Termex, Ariston, Electrolux and others boilers are absolutely identical.

The stores offer a huge selection of water heaters and boilers, but not everyone knows about all the capabilities of this equipment. In order not to get confused in the choice, you need to know the basic criteria by which you should purchase a device. How to choose a storage water heater for an apartment. you will find out on our website.

Ariston water heater repair

Ariston water heaters have vulnerable parts:

thermostat;
sensors;
switches;
heating elements.

The most common repairs are valves and insulation gaskets. The integrity of the tank is compromised less frequently. This breakdown occurs due to corrosion or careless handling. The tank needs to be repaired only by a service center.

Do-it-yourself repairs involve timely preventative cleaning. Every six months it is recommended to clean the heating element for the Ariston water heater.

How to determine the malfunction?

Everything is simple, with obvious changes in work:

Strange hissing during operation.
The standard heating period increases.
Switching on and off has become noticeably more frequent.

Any high-quality Ariston device is easy to handle when repairing it yourself. But it is better to follow these instructions:

Disconnect the room and device from power.
Drain the water. Drainage must be ensured using a hose with a diameter slightly smaller than the hole for discharging liquid.
Place the flush hose in the toilet.
Shut off the cold water supply.
Disconnect the hose from the cold water valve.
Connect this hose to the tap and lower it into the toilet.
Remove the heating element. Its fastening is always on a nut with a washer or plate.
Having pulled out the heating element, carefully examine all places with scale and try to remove everything without harm to the tank.
After removing the scale, pour clean water over the tank.
If the heating element itself is in working order, then you can clean it in the same way.
Install all hoses and parts of the heater in the same order.

The cheapest and best way to remove scale is citric acid diluted in water. This solution is poured into the tank and left for 24 hours.

With an independent approach, you can and should only replace parts with original ones. Spare parts for Ariston water heaters from the manufacturer guarantee quality, money invested in repairs and stable operation of the devices.

Modern water heating devices are classified primarily by displacement. The selection of a water heater also begins with the volume of the tank. Each of the Ariston models is designed for specific rooms and frequency of activation. What is the difference between the models?

Ariston water heater review (video)

To install wall-mounted models, the equipment is fixed using anchors or bolts. The optimal standard fastener diameter should be 10 mm or more . Installation of hundred-liter water heating tanks has some features. In this case, the fastening must be carried out with fixation on the other side of the wall. It is for this reason that experts recommend installing water heating devices before starting the main finishing work.

It is important to remember that when connecting different types of metals, it is mandatory to use dielectric adapters, through which differences in the degree of expansion of materials differing in parameters are compensated. The input must be connected using a standard valve, and a pipe is installed at the output. At the final stage, the installed water heater must be turned on and checked for correct connection, absence of leaks and operability.

During the operation of manufactured water heaters, difficulties do not arise, but it is necessary to take into account some rules that affect the durability of the device and its performance. Preventive measures are carried out periodically, including inspection of the internal parts of the equipment, descaling and replacement of heating elements that have become unusable. The average operating time of all mechanisms of a particular model can be found from the manufacturer's instructions. It must be remembered that timely replacement of the anode allows you to extend the service life of the water heating mechanism. In accordance with the recommendations of professionals, it is not advisable to set the thermostat to the maximum heating level.

If you set the temperature limit approximately 10°C below the maximum values, you can significantly reduce electrical energy costs, as well as save resources on equipment parts. It is important to remember that you can only disassemble the device yourself as a last resort. Do-it-yourself repair work will exclude the possibility of exercising the right to warranty repairs.

What are the consequences of excess moisture in the soil?

You can see the results of this phenomenon yourself - trees and shrubs die. Why is this happening?

the oxygen content in the soil decreases and the carbon dioxide content increases, which leads to disruption of air exchange processes, water regime and nutritional regime in the soil;
oxygen starvation of the root-forming layer occurs, which leads to the death of plant roots;
the supply of macro and microelements by plants (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, etc.) is disrupted, because excess water washes out mobile forms of elements from the soil, and they become unavailable for absorption;
intensive breakdown of proteins occurs and, accordingly, the processes of decay are activated.

Plants can tell you at what level groundwater lies

Take a close look at the flora of your area. The species inhabiting it will tell you at what depth the groundwater layers are located:

perched water - it is best to dig a reservoir in this place;
at a depth of up to 0.5 m - marigold, horsetails, varieties of sedges grow - bladderwrack, holly, foxtail, Langsdorff's reed;
at a depth of 0.5 m to 1 m - meadowsweet, canary grass, ;
from 1 m to 1.5 m – favorable conditions for meadow fescue, bluegrass, mouse peas, rank;
from 1.5 m - wheatgrass, clover, wormwood, plantain.

What is important to know when planning site drainage

Each group of plants has its own moisture needs:

with a groundwater depth of 0.5 to 1 m, vegetables and annual flowers can grow in high beds;
depth of water layer up to 1.5 m is well tolerated by vegetables, grains, annuals and perennials (flowers), ornamental and fruit shrubs, trees on a dwarf rootstock;
if the groundwater is more than 2 m deep, fruit trees can be grown;
The optimal depth of groundwater for agriculture is from 3.5 m.

Standard instructions for an Ariston water heater 80 liters

Water heaters of this size are necessary for daily use by the whole family. The presence of sensors and temperature levels guarantees safe operation.
